Order of Play:

  • Gypsy - 44
  • Weez - 63


Argus leads off with a bust of Row 2 for a point. AJ may have had the same idea but wasn't as eager.

Gypsy spies a perfect time to setup a 9-pointer on Row 1, just in time for Weez to follow behind and collect those points!

 -----------------------------------
Order of Play:
  • Weez - 10
  • Argus - 26
  • AJ - 29
  • Gypsy - 91


Weez copycats Argus from last round by busting Row 2 for a point.

Meanwhile Argus takes advantage of his setup to play on the new Row 2, with AJ close on his heels.

Gypsy had targeted the old Row 2 and ends up following along on the new Row 2, setting us up for a walk down!

Apparently nobody got the memo that there was a walk down.

Gypsy takes Row 3, setting up a nice new low row for everyone under 32, since that's the highest card anyone played on the old Row 1.

Still avoiding the walkdown, Gypsy and Weez play on the wide-open Row 1. AJ sneaks into the last spot on Row 2, filling it to 15 points just in time for Argus to bust it!

Everyone lines up in the same order. Gypsy and Weez squeeze on to the last two spots on Row 1, while AJ and Argus enjoy the free space that Argus set up last turn.

Gypsy stays at the head of the line, hoping nobody swipes Row 2 and her incremental play works. It does! AJ follows closely behind, filling the row just in time for Argus to snag 7 point, leaving Weez to breathe a sigh of relief.

  • Weez - 87

Options dwindle, and despite playing high, AJ is not as high as Gypsy, snagging Row 1's 9 points.

Weez plays all alone on Row 2 while Argus grabs 5 points from Row 3.

  • Argus - 70
  • Weez - 93


Gypsy is finally forced to take her first points of the game. Or should I say point, as Argus left her a nice 1-point row to bust. AJ and Argus follow behind while Weez quietly finishes up on the new Row 3.

Points this round:

Gypsy 1
AJ 9
Weez 10
Argus 28

Scores so far this game:
Gypsy 11
AJ 20
Weez 36
Argus 62
